Mary Quant, Mastermind of Swinging ’60s Style, Dies at 93
Some compared her impact on the fashion world with The Beatles’ impact on pop music.
She shot to the top of the fashion scene at the time when The Beatles and Rolling Stones dominated the music world, and she was forever linked to the heady freedoms of the 1960s.
The clothes became wildly popular and were worn by models such as Twiggy and Pattie Boyd, who was then married to Beatles guitarist George Harrison.

One of my classmates from high school died on the Edmund Fitzgerald that Gordon Lightfoot wrote the song about.

Sigh... Gordon Lightfoot was an excellent songwriter, and I'm a little sad that I lost track of him after he stopped having hits. I saw him at the Hollywood Bowl circa 1975, after "Sundown" had been all over the charts, and it was an excellent show -- no frills, no special effects, just music.

@njr Wasn't there a story that "The church bell chimed 'til it rang twenty-nine times" was really 32 times. Gordon left the sound recording as is, but correct the number in Live concerts?

I never heard that. There were 29 onboard who all died.
